Illegitimate Daughter’s Revenge - C62
On the second night after the disaster, Old Liu went to longevity hospital after dinner. She said that she had something to discuss with Ji Qin, and after Ji Zhen heard about it, she also went over.
It would have been fine if it was just a birthday feast, since she was spending her own private money. However, if she were to say it like that now, it would mean that she was going to be allocated money from the government.
“Then let’s just hire a small show or two to do some acrobatics. We should be done after having some fun with the noodles.” The Ji Qin had thought that they would only have one concubine, and that they would have to hold a birthday feast. However, the purpose of the Old Liu was obviously not that.
“Then take it. There are quite a few dishes to eat at home anyway.” Ji Qin wanted to object, but Ji Zhen agreed first, the way she said it sounded bad. In Old Liu’s eyes, it was me who asked you to hold a birthday feast, and it was a gift for you, if it was a normal time Old Liu, he would have already jumped in anger, but she had no other choice, and could only forcefully endure it.
“Then that old granny will send people to clean up the place, it is just that the majority of the guests are female servants, why not stay with the True Sis!, there are a lot of doors for the Sunflower House anyways.” She did pick a place.
“Sunflower House is the courtyard of the direct s.” Ji Qin’s cold tone, and those cold words made Old Liu abruptly quiver.
He couldn’t open his mouth to get people to live in the Sunflower House, and could only make a small change in his attitude. “This old lady’s West Garden is not bad, why don’t you stay with me, it’s easier to talk about it, isn’t it?”
“Then you can decide for yourself what you spend in the past. Even if you give the young master more money, you still won’t know how much he’ll spend.” Ji Qin was not an easy place to live. Since she had to bring someone to live in the palace, who knew how long she would stay for? Since the person who came was from Old Liu’s mother’s manor, it would be strange if she gave him a good look! Could it be that they have to be raised by this Ji Mansion?
“Of course, of course, Aunt, don’t worry. I will take care of this matter.” If it wasn’t for the fact that he could get the approval of the Ji Qin, the old face of the Old Liu would have been unable to remain calm.
After they had dispersed, Ji Qin could not help but ask Ji Zhen: “What do you think, True Sis!? Why is someone coming in? Tell Grand Grandmother about it, and let him know what it means. ”
“Grand Grandmother, instead of keeping us on guard, we might as well attack them directly. It’s good that they are here, it might even save us some trouble.” Ji Zhen had already known in her heart that after the calamity that had befallen them a few days ago, she was the best wife to be chosen in the eyes of these rich and influential families.
Once he returned to the Sunflower House, Ji Zhen began to discuss with Steward Lin: “The old pious nanny is going to live for fifty years, she needs the estate to give her a seat.”
“Then it’s done, it doesn’t matter if it’s left or right.”
“However, she said that she would bring a few of her family members over. Not only do they wish them a birthday celebration, they might even want to stay there. As for how long they’ll stay there, that’s up.”
“Hmm?” Lin Bei, on the other hand, admired Liu Family from the bottom of his heart. He was truly a dog skin relative, and once he got close, he was unable to tear it apart.
Just as everyone was preparing for the birthday celebration before the birthday celebration, Ji Zhen was pulled into the embroidery room by the Han’s.
The arrangement of the embroidery workshop was very elegant, it was not inferior to Sunflower House’s embroidery workshop. There were all kinds of threads inside, including all kinds of gold and silver, but she knew how to use them, and all the items in Sunflower House were placed there for others to borrow.
The Han’s was already sitting there, embroidering the word “birthday”. A month later, at the Old Liu’s birthday banquet, there would be a great display of brilliance.
Her master was originally very strict with Ji Zhen, but because she had pricked her finger, she ran over to Old Liu and cried out to him.
Old Liu pitied her and said, “Since you do not like to learn, then stop. Call your maidservants to learn, and when we get married in the future, bring two embroidery ladies with you. You don’t have to know them yourself, but learn how to use zither, chess, calligraphy, poems, and songs carefully, otherwise your father would not be able to explain it.”
She did not believe that, with First Lady’s shrewdness, she would not know that the woman she disliked was a fake.
Bejewelled emeralds are coiled like ropes, and the delicacy is arsenic.
The Han’s saw that Ji Zhen was staring at the embroidery in a daze and stitched two more times: “I’ve been embroidering for four hours everyday and it’s been almost three months. True Sis!, what birthday present did you prepare for the Grandmother? Why are you in a daze again? ”
When Ji Zhen saw her fly up, he smiled absentmindedly, “It’s just that I’m suddenly a little touched. The sky is cold and the earth is cold, if I sit for four hours, my hands will definitely freeze solid. stepgrandmother can’t bear to see me suffer like this, Aunt Han has to take care of her body as well.
“Everyone in the Palace knows that your Grandmother dotes on you the most. Even Little Sister Xue’er couldn’t compare to it. What kind of birthday present did you prepare for your stepgrandmother?”
Ji Zhen scratched her forehead in shame, and looked at Han’s in rebuke, “You clearly know that I’m not good at embroidery, is Aunt Han trying to make fun of me? “I also plan to embroider a picture of a hundred years old.”
These words caused the Han’s to laugh out loud, “You actually know your own limits and want to embroider a 100 year old map? “Are you trying to beat me down?”
Ji Zhen raised her head, “Why can’t I compete? After all, the stepgrandmother has always been protective of me, it’s just that I couldn’t think of a good idea for a while.”
The Han’s covered his mouth and laughed as he glanced at Ji Zhen from the corner of his eyes, “This aunt can give you a suggestion.”
Ji Zhen laughed, “If Aunt Han has a good idea, tell me!”
Aunt Han laughed, and then gently caressed the embroidery on her hand, laughing, “True Sis!’s needlework is not good, but True Sis! has plenty of silver, on Grandmother’s fiftieth birthday, using gold to cast thirty words of life with different shapes and sizes, they were the most effective.”
Ji Zhen’s eyes lit up, but she was not excited, because she had done the same thing in her previous life.
Han’s laughed lightly, “I was just suddenly inspired. Think about it for yourself, but tell me, is Aunt’s thinking good or not good?”
Ji Zhen laughed without revealing any emotion, “How could I not tell you that I have such an idea? If I knew that you had a good idea, I would have tried so hard to think of it, my head would have started to ache, I have to thank you properly, how about I buy you a set of headdress as a thank you gift?”
Han’s was elated, but he did not show it on the surface and quickly replied, “You and I are sisters, it is only right for me to help you, it is too formal for me to say thanks.”
Ji Zhen was also happy in her heart, you didn’t want this, so he immediately smiled and said, “That’s right, it’s too foreign for master and servant to say ‘thank you’.”
When Han’s heard that, his entire face froze. Ji Zhen did not believe that this Han’s did not know that he had already broken off all relations with him. Did she really think he was stupid?
